会话搬家 · Session Mover

SkillAI & models

Move a project folder AND migrate all its Claude Code state in one shot — session store, prompt-up-arrow history, running-session records. Supports both directory-level moves AND session-level cherry-picking (by id, regex on first user prompt, or interactive picker). Use whenever the user wants to rename/move a project directory and keep `claude --resume` working, or wants to move a subset of chats from one project to another. 移动/重命名项目目录并迁移所有 CC 历史,或按 session 粒度把某个话题的对话搬到另一个项目。

Two modes in one tool:

Directory-level (default) — four things in one shot:

  1. mv FROM TO on disk (fs.renameSync — instant, preserves everything)
  2. Rewrites ~/.claude/projects/<slug>/*.jsonl session store — including every sub-directory slug
  3. Rewrites ~/.claude/history.jsonl (prompt up-arrow recall)
  4. Rewrites ~/.claude/sessions/*.json (running-session records)

Session-level (opt-in, via --session/--grep/--pick) — migrate a subset of chats:

  1. Copies only the selected .jsonl files from FROM's slug dir into TO's
  2. Rewrites each file's cwd from FROM → TO
  3. Rewrites only the matching running-session records
  4. Does not touch history.jsonl or fs mv (project itself isn't being moved)
  5. Sub-dir slugs are ignored (root only by design)

Old slug dirs and source sessions are left intact unless --delete-source is passed.

When to Trigger

YES — directory-level when:

  • User wants to move/rename a project folder (prospective move — we do the mv)
  • User already moved the folder externally and CC lost history (post-move recovery — use --no-mv or the cc-migrate-session alias)
  • Sub-dir sessions under FROM should come along (handled automatically)

YES — session-level when:

  • User wants to migrate only some sessions from FROM to TO — identified by id, topic/content, or to be picked interactively
  • User said "只搬这几个" / "those chats about X" / "not all of them"
  • User needs to split one project's chat history across two projects

NO — don't invoke when:

  • Renaming a file, function, variable, or branch (not the project root)
  • General question about CC's storage model (explain, don't migrate)
  • Paths are ambiguous — ask first

Workflow

Step 1 — Gather FROM and TO

User saidFROMTO
"把 /a 搬到 /b" / "mv /a to /b"/a/b
"rename ~/foo to ~/bar"~/foo~/bar
"this project used to be at /old" (cwd is the new location)/oldprocess.cwd()
"本项目已迁移到 /new" (cwd is the old location)process.cwd()/new

If either side is ambiguous, ask once with AskUserQuestion. Don't guess.

Always expand ~ and resolve to absolute paths before running the CLI.

Step 2 — Decide directory-level vs session-level

Directory-level if:

  • User said "move the whole project" / "rename the folder"
  • User wants fs mv (the folder itself is moving on disk)
  • User wants ALL sessions (including any sub-dir sessions) migrated

Session-level if:

  • User said "only the sessions about X" / "just these chats" / "not all of them"
  • User referenced sessions by content/topic or explicit id
  • The folder itself should stay put (only CC state for a subset is moving)

Step 3 — Session-level: resolve the session set

The key design point: AI should auto-filter whenever possible, only prompt the user when ambiguous.

  1. Run:

    npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> --list-sessions --json
    

    Parse sessions[*] — each has sessionId, firstUserPrompt, mtime, sizeBytes, messageCount.

  2. Match the user's intent against firstUserPrompt yourself:

    • If the topic is unambiguous (e.g. "about command vs skill" + exactly one session's prompt obviously matches) → pick it directly, proceed to Step 4 with --session <id> flags.
    • If a regex captures it cleanly (e.g. topic = "slash command") → use --grep '<pattern>' instead of passing ids.
    • If multiple sessions could match and you can't disambiguate from firstUserPrompt alone → show the user the shortlist and ask which ones.
    • If the user asked for interactive picking explicitly → run with --pick and let the CLI do the UX.
  3. Exclude the current running CC session from the selection — it's the one the user is talking to you from right now, migrating it mid-conversation will break things. (Its sessionId matches the session file that was written to most recently; safer signal: ask the user to confirm if ambiguous.)

Step 4a — Dry-run + json to preview (directory-level)

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --dry-run --json

Parse the JSON. Tell the user:

  • Total sessions and affected slug count (pairs[*] with sessionCount > 0)
  • If pairs.length > 1: flag that sub-directories also have CC history
  • If toDirExistsOnDisk and FROM also exists: warn — CLI will refuse the fs mv
  • If any pairs[i].toSlugDirExists: warn — destination slug dir will be merged

If totalSessions === 0 AND the user wanted post-move recovery (FROM path doesn't exist): stop, tell them either (a) FROM path is wrong, or (b) CC never ran there.

Step 4b — Dry-run + json to preview (session-level)

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --session <id> --session <id> --dry-run --json
# or
npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --grep '<pattern>' --dry-run --json

The JSON's sessionLevel: true, resolvedSessionIds: [...], and pairs[0].sessionFilter: [...] confirm which sessions will move.

Summarize for the user: "Will migrate N session(s): ". Get confirmation before executing.

Step 5 — Confirm

For directory-level with sub-dirs: ask "Found N sub-dir(s) with CC history. Migrate everything? [Y/n]" — default yes.

For session-level: always summarize the selected sessions (by first-prompt excerpt) and ask "Migrate these N session(s)?" — especially if you resolved them from a regex or topic match, so the user can catch false positives.

Also ask about --delete-source if the user said anything like "move" (vs "copy") — default to keeping source as safety net, only pass --delete-source when the user explicitly wants it.

Step 6 — Execute

Directory-level:

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --yes --json

For post-move recovery (FROM already moved externally):

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --yes --no-mv --json
# OR equivalently:
npx -y @lovstudio/cc-migrate-session <FROM> <TO> --yes --json

Session-level:

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --session <id1> --session <id2> --yes --json
# or with regex:
npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> --grep '<pattern>' --yes --json
# optionally add --delete-source

Parse phase: "done":

  • result.slugsMigrated, result.jsonlFilesWritten, result.cwdRewrites
  • result.historyRewrites (0 in session-level mode — expected)
  • result.runningSessionRewrites
  • result.sourceSessionsDeleted (only non-zero with --delete-source)
  • fsMvMethod: "rename", "shell-mv", or null (session-level / --no-mv)
  • restartHint.cd + restartHint.command

Step 7 — Tell user to restart CC

Directory-level:

✓ Moved FROM → TO and migrated N session(s) across M slug dir(s).
✓ Also rewrote prompt history and running-session records.

Restart Claude Code in the new location:

  cd <TO>
  claude --resume

(The old slug dirs at ~/.claude/projects/<old-slug>* are untouched — delete
them once you've verified --resume works.)

Session-level:

✓ Migrated N session(s) from FROM to TO.
✓ Source sessions {kept as safety net | deleted}.

To resume one of the migrated sessions:

  cd <TO>
  claude --resume <session-id>

IMPORTANT: The CURRENT Claude Code session cannot "switch" its own cwd mid-session. The user must exit and re-invoke claude from the new directory. State this clearly.

CLI Reference

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> <TO> [options] npx -y @lovstudio/cc-mv <FROM> [<TO>] --list-sessions [--json]

OptionPurpose
-y, --yesSkip confirmation prompt
--dry-runShow plan, don't write
--no-mvSkip the filesystem mv (only migrate CC state — post-move recovery)
--jsonMachine-readable output (use this from the skill)
--projects-dir <dir>Override CC projects dir (default ~/.claude/projects)
--session <id>Session-level: migrate only this id (repeatable)
--grep <pattern>Session-level: migrate sessions whose first user prompt matches the regex (case-insensitive)
--pickSession-level: interactive numbered picker
--list-sessionsPrint session summaries and exit (pair with --json for scripting)
--delete-sourceDelete migrated source sessions after copy+rewrite (default keeps them)

Backwards-compatible alias

npx -y @lovstudio/cc-migrate-session <FROM> <TO> — same tool, but defaults to --no-mv (only migrates CC state, doesn't touch the filesystem). Use when the user already moved the folder externally.

Sub-directory Discovery (directory-level only)

CC's slug rule is: replace every non-[A-Za-z0-9] with -. So FROM/sub slugifies to <fromSlug>-<subSlug>.

The CLI lists ~/.claude/projects/ and takes every slug matching slug === fromSlug || slug.startsWith(fromSlug + "-"). That catches FROM and all descendants in one readdir. It then reads each slug's first jsonl to recover the original absolute sub-path (since slug → path isn't reversible), builds the migration pair, and proceeds.

Session-level mode deliberately ignores sub-dir slugs — the user is cherry-picking sessions, not moving the whole project.

Safety

  • Old slug dirs are never deleted in directory-level mode. Copy-then-rewrite. Old state survives.
  • Source session files are kept by default in session-level mode. Pass --delete-source explicitly to remove them.
  • fs mv refuses if TO already exists on disk (avoid overwrite).
  • Slug-dir merging is default when dest slug dir exists — conflicting jsonls overwritten.
  • Session-level + --mv is rejected (doesn't make sense — the folder itself isn't moving).
  • Malformed jsonl lines are passed through unchanged.

Tell the user to verify claude --resume works at TO before rm -rf of old slug dirs.
